Hello
I frequently work with parcel data as part of my job. I'm finding the benefit of having COGO information stored in my line-work, but have found a major nuance (possible bug?) with it.
Frequently, the surveys of parcels are rotated as they relate to my data-frame. This results in me rotating several groups of lines from a survey to fit my data. However, when I do this all the COGO attributes from the traverse get set to null!
Is there some setting I can set to prevent this? I want to be able to freely rotate features, while maintaining the original survey attributes in the COGO fields.
Thanks in advance
I'm going to add onto this and ask:
Is there any way to disable the auto-updating of COGO attributes when doing certain tasks? For example, it also nulls all the values whenever I do a line extension (for topology purposes).
Am I using the COGO attributes in the wrong way? I assumed this was a way to maintain the survey information of a land records boundary. However ArcMap seems to be making this as difficult as it possibly can. Again, It seems as if I do any sort of topology edits it completely removes these attributes and I have to re-enter them again.
I'm running ArcGIS 10.2.2 if that is of any help. Thanks.
I had a similar problem and when I saw yours, the gray matter got jostled enough to remind me I already knew the answer. Here's what I did:
